Hi..thanx for the reply..i just follow a link provided by someone and download the apps

FYI.. last 9 i try to bump the CPU voltage 1 step from "Auto" and now is @ 1.47V... 3DMark05 pass thorugh... run prime95 from 1am till 7am this morning and notice the max temp is 49C...oh am using CM 212+ with TX4 as cooling.

Is 1.47V for 555 BE procesor too high or just right for OC?

Hi all.. thanx for your reply.

saturn85 .... not in air-cond room...normal room temperature.. i think is because of the Hyper 212+ with TX4 and my casing ventilation

kuntawakaw ... 49C is shown on both THRM and TMPIN0 at CPUID Hardware Monitor.

Guys...

I think i've a problem now ... yesterday i try to OC with adjusting the Multiplier with AMD Overdrive apps. The CPU Vcore bump to 1.5V with max 52C on 100% load and passed Prime95 test running for 7.5 hours.

My Rig now running on 3500Mhz (200 x 17.5)...pls advise onhow to decrease the voltage value and get it stabilize? .... i'm targeting at 3800Mhz only.

After trying few days... I guess 1.47 is my stabil voltage as i try to lower it to 1.45, 3DMark05 hangs... so i presume if it can't pass 3DMark05, my games will face the same problem too...

Well.. due to some reason, i've just replaced my mobo to Sabertooth 990FX instead of C5F

Hi Hitawari...

your mobo able to support the proc but u may not want to or perform OC'ng.

am using BioStar TA785GE 128M (rated 125W also) previously and it 'die' on me when try OC'ng the unlock B55 (TDP 160W) .. lucky mobo got warranty
